OlderCelebrity Pregnancies = Big Bucks
The New York Times has a great piece on celebrity pregnancies and how it helped OK! magazine sell a record number of copies for it’s “Jamie Lynn Spears: I’m Pregnant” cover.
The exclusive Jamie Lynn issue sold nearly two million, roughly twice the usual number. The previous record issue was headlined “Britney’s Meltdown,” which sold 1.2 million copies.
“This is a family whose trajectory appears to be moving in the wrong direction, and they might actually not know where their next paycheck is coming from,” said Janice Min, the head honcho of US Weekly. “Money is money. [Jamie Lynn's pregnancy is the] ultimate example of one of these celebrities deciding ‘I’m tired of somebody else making money off of me, I’m going to make money off my own news.’”

I like J Lynn and all but damn having sex at 16 and being pregnent
what does her boy think? If she is pregnent she had to have sex like 24/7 ya no humping bouncing nude off and on gee i know people who have sex but not that much!!! Damn i do to a lot!!!!
What are you guys like 10? she may have made a mistake, that doesn’t mean that she ruined her life….and for godsakes, Kandi, you don’t have to have sex 24/7 to get pregnant, all it takes is once, and things sometimes happen for a reason, I was told I would never have kids cus of cancer. I’m only 17, does that mean I ruined my whole life? no, I made a mistake, but I look at it as a miracle….so get off of your closed minded theories and realize that this is reality, and what would you do in her shoes? Geez she’s famous, half of the stories aren’t even true…..DUUUUHHHHHHH….get a grip, and grow up….
Jamie Lynn can show off her pregnancy and earn money just due to her sister’s popularity…. It doesn’t make much of her.
